Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 195 0194: High-level Soul Crystal; Soul Slave Upgrade!

Seeing that the high-level soul crystal he had been longing for was purchased successfully, Cheng Zongyang quickly closed the remaining unimportant prompt boxes and went out to find Luo Dingran in a rice field in the wilderness.

Also present were people like Li Xingyun and Ye Di who had a talent for intensive farming.

"Meet the adults!"

When five or six people saw Cheng Zongyang coming, they immediately bowed and greeted him.

"It's okay." Cheng Zongyang waved his hand.

Seeing what everyone was discussing, Cheng Zongyang was a little confused. He suppressed his question about the high-level soul crystal and asked:
"Gathering here at this time, what happened to this wild rice?"

Li Xingyun and the others looked at each other, and finally Li Xingyun responded:

"Reporting to the Lord, we are studying these seven acres of rice cuttings. We found that the wild rice, which should have been harvested in early to mid-April, has only now fully matured. This is more than half a month later than the original rice seeds."

Cheng Zongyang was puzzled: "It's normal that it's a little late. Could it be that the production volume has decreased?"

As he spoke, Cheng Zongyang also looked at the rice fields around him that were nearly as tall as a person and were hung with heavy rice ears.

"No." Li Xingyun explained immediately: "But I feel that the taste of the rice seeds after grafting seems to be a little different."

Cheng Zongyang was stunned: "Taste? Will it affect the yield?"

At this point, Ye Di came out to explain: "Sir, it has no effect on the yield, but I tried cooking some of this wild rice tonight and found that it doesn't taste as good as the original rice. It also has a slightly rough texture and is relatively dry and hard after cooking."

Cheng Zongyang was silent for a long time, and said helplessly: "So, this is why you are doing research here?"

But Ye Di shook his head and said, "Sir, this is just one of the reasons. For farmers and ordinary people, having rice to eat is good enough, so they don't care about the taste.

The main thing is that Zhang Jinquan discovered that after eating these cuttings of rice seeds, people feel fuller and can also be used as medicine!
According to his idea, the five grains of the Five Grains Internal Tonic Pills can be replaced. The rice from the cuttings can be used as the main ingredient of the Five Grains Internal Tonic Pills without mixing in other crops. Zhang Jinquan has already tried..."

"OK OK!"

At this moment, Zhang Jinquan's timely voice came from far away.

Then I saw Zhang Jinquan walking quickly towards me.

"The master is here." When Zhang Jinquan saw Cheng Zongyang, he smiled and bowed.

Cheng Zongyang asked curiously, "Have you made the new pill?"

He was really surprised.

I didn't expect that the rice cuttings would have such a special effect.

Zhang Jinquan nodded: "I took some and tried to make a furnace. Take a look."

As he said this, he handed over the bowl in his hand.

In the light of the surrounding torches, Cheng Zongyang saw seven or eight gray-white pills, each the size of half a fingernail, in the bowl.

Zhang Jinquan also explained at the right time: "Using this cutting rice seed production saves a lot of trouble. I don't know how effective it will be yet."

Cheng Zongyang immediately retracted his outstretched hand: "You haven't tried it yet?"

He hasn't forgotten how this guy died.

Zhang Jinquan chuckled and said, "I've tried it, but I don't know how effective it is yet."

Cheng Zongyang shook his head slightly. This thing would be of great use to his future and could be used as one of the core products of the pharmacy.

If the process materials can be simplified, that would be great. But he also knew that it didn't matter whether these soul slaves ate or not, so he said to Zhang Jinquan:

"Put this in a bottle and I'll take it out to try later. Are you sure it's okay?"

Zhang Jinquan quickly said: "No problem, I've tried it."

Now he really didn't dare to give Cheng Zongyang anything he hadn't tried before.

He is now a soul slave, and as long as his body is not damaged by external forces, he will basically not die. So no matter how he tries, it won't be a big problem.

But Cheng Zongyang can't do that. If he takes it outside and it dies while trying, that would be a big problem.

"Okay." Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly, and then said: "Let's talk about it after we try it. After you have studied the transplanted rice thoroughly, write a report for me to see. If this new internal tonic pill works, we will mass-produce it and sell it in the future."

"Okay." Everyone agreed.

"Where is the high-level soul crystal?" At this time, Cheng Zongyang looked at Luo Dingran.

Luo Dingran smiled and said, "Put it on the third floor, but I got something good out of it."

Cheng Zongyang's face lit up as he headed for the fresh-keeping warehouse, and Luo Dingran followed him.

The third floor of the fresh-keeping warehouse.

Luo Dingran brought two items.

One is a stone that is also the size of a thumb and as red as blood.

The other one is a dark green ball the size of a soybean.

Luo Dingran said at this time: "It cost 4,500 points to buy a high-level soul crystal."

"As for this pill, you'll understand once you see it for yourself. It costs 800 points."

As he said that, he took a step back and did not disturb Cheng Zongyang. However, his eyes were fixed on the blood-red crystal stone, his eyes were burning!
Cheng Zongyang looked at the pill first. Ever since he bought a dragon-tiger pill that could improve his cultivation, although it had lost most of its medicinal power, it still gave him a significant improvement.

Now there is another one, which has nearly three times the points of the Dragon Tiger Pill!

-

【Nine Yang Pill (Limited)】

Introduction: This medicine comes from the remains of a sect in the wilderness world. Due to its age, only 30% of its efficacy remains, but some of the medicinal power it contains can enhance the true qi cultivation of martial arts practitioners. Swallow the whole pill.

Quantity: 1 (pieces)

Restriction: Only for martial arts practitioners and above

Points: 800
Note: Special items, special sale

-

Looking at the introduction of the pill in his hand, Cheng Zongyang was delighted.

It actually improves the cultivation of true qi! This kind of elixir that improves cultivation is extremely difficult to swipe. Although the price is a bit more expensive than the original Dragon Tiger Pill, it can directly improve the cultivation of true qi, which is worth it.

But he thought about it and hesitated whether to let Zhang Jinquan do the research. If he could find out the formula or even a similar medicine, it would be an extremely rare elixir.

This kind of medicine that improves the cultivation of true Qi is basically used by warriors above the third level.

This type of elixir is rare to begin with. If it can be developed, it means that the Cheng family pharmacy will have an additional competitive medicine.

But he felt a little conflicted when he thought that there was only one pill of this kind, and it would be a waste if the research failed.

Then I thought about it and decided to put this idea aside for now and talk about it later.

At the same time, he had a stronger desire to explore other parts of the wilderness world.

There are some sect ruins, orc ruins, elven tribe ruins, etc. There are many good things waiting for him to discover.

But many things cannot be taken care of at the same time. He needs the feedback from the outside world to expand his area in this world, so as to obtain more resources for exchange and have more soul slaves to explore.

Then he looked at the blood-red high-level soul crystal beside him, and its information also emerged.

-

[High-level Soul Crystal]

Introduction: A special crystal from the Valley of the Dead in the wilderness world, with a rare and precious output. It will automatically gather and collect souls within a radius of 500 meters. When all souls are collected, the crystal lights up and a complete soul can be released. When the soul is released, it will inherit and fuse one of the memories and condense a physical body, and become a soul slave of the releaser, absolutely obedient.

special:

①: The soul slave condenses into a physical body. The releaser can shape its appearance and grant 30 four-dimensional attribute points, which can be used to improve the four attributes of body, energy, strength and agility and cannot be changed.

②: Soul Slave level breakthrough will gain five attribute points.

③: Skill restrictions are lifted.

④: Talent restrictions are lifted.

⑤: It can be used to upgrade the soul slaves created by the intermediate soul crystal. After the upgrade, it will be upgraded on the basis of the intermediate level. And there is a chance to restore one skill of the soul slave before his death or a random talent ability.

Restrictions: ①: Soul slaves can only move within the wilderness world.

②: Soul slaves shaped by low-level soul crystals cannot be upgraded directly.

Number of uses: 1
Quantity: 1 (piece)

Points: 4500

Looking at the introduction of this crystal, Cheng Zongyang's eyes widened.

"Isn't this high-level soul crystal a bit amazing?"

"Now that all restrictions have been lifted, does that mean that I can not only improve my skills and talents like normal people, but I can also learn skills on my own? Even practice martial arts techniques?"

Soul slaves created by mid-level soul crystals can improve their copying skills, but cannot learn new skills on their own. Other skills are limited.

But these high-level restrictions have been lifted!
The result should be similar to what he guessed, and he can study and improve normally.

The most amazing thing is that you can use the soul slaves shaped by the intermediate soul crystal to upgrade, and then randomly gain skills or talents!
If this is the case, then these 4500 points are well spent.

Even though the original roster had 5,000 points, the Soul Gathering Monument only had 1,000 points!
The function of the high-level soul crystal, which costs 4,500 points each, is truly worth the money!
The limitation of skills prevented the soul slaves from learning more things, which meant that they could not bring out their true potential!
But once this restriction is lifted, these 4500 points will be enough to make back the investment.

As for the gaze behind him, Cheng Zongyang could naturally sense it.

He could feel Luo Dingran's passion and desire for this crystal.

Luo Dingran’s talent is command, which can improve the four-dimensional attributes of the people he rules by 20%.

Now that this restriction has been lifted, it means that the upper limit of this talent can be raised. With the two complementing each other, the attributes of the ruled will increase accordingly.

High-level crystals can improve the mid-level soul slaves. Giving them to Luo Dingran can maximize the benefits and use value.

Of course, if used for talents such as Li Xingyun's meticulous cultivation, Han Mo's mastery of pharmacy, and Zhang Jinquan's self-healing, the effect will be good.

He even wondered if Zhang Jinquan's talent would gradually improve to a certain level and turn it into a miraculous ability like super regeneration.

But no matter what, the purpose of this high-level soul crystal can at least be used according to the soul slave's talent, so as to bring out a greater value of the talent!
"Do you want this high-level soul crystal?" Cheng Zongyang held the crystal and looked at Luo Dingran behind him.

Luo Dingran nodded solemnly without disguising, "Yes. With my talent, it will have a positive effect on all personnel in the future.

This will also enhance the five teams going out for hunting and exploration. In addition, I want to try to see if I can practice martial arts techniques. "

Cheng Zongyang understood Luo Dingran's plan.

Immediately he said, "Go outside. I'll give you a try to upgrade."

Luo Dingran showed a hint of excitement in his eyes and nodded in agreement.

Cheng Zongyang also took the Nine Yang Pill.

A moment later, at the door of the market hut.

Cheng Zongyang looked at Luo Dingran who was standing still and placed the soul crystal on his head.

As his thought progressed, a new prompt message appeared.

-

【prompt:
①: When using high-level soul crystals to shape new soul slaves, five corpses that have been dead for no more than 24 hours are required.

②: High-level soul crystals are used to upgrade soul slaves created by mid-level soul crystals. Souls do not need to be collected for use. A corpse that has been dead for no more than 24 hours is required as a new energy reorganization requirement, and a talent or a skill from the previous life is obtained at will.

③：……

④：……

⑤: …】

After Cheng Zongyang finished reading, he found that the following few items had already been hinted in the introduction, so he did not read any more.

Need to remember the first two points.

Five bodies, or one body!
After taking back the crystal, Cheng Zongyang explained to Luo Dingran. Then he said:
"There are quite a few eighth-rank warriors imprisoned in Tianduan Village. I'll go find one for you."

"Thank you for your hard work, sir!" Luo Dingran bowed.

Cheng Zongyang waved his hand, entered the market hut and left the wilderness world.

After coming out, he looked at the surrounding environment, calmed down a little, then left his residence and went out of the city to Tianduan Village.

When you enter Tianduan Village, you will see gang disciples guarding the entrance and people patrolling everywhere.

There are quite a few people.

"Meet Master Cheng," the guard at the farmland entrance bowed to Cheng Zongyang and said hesitantly, "Please give me the password, Master Cheng."

"Don't be afraid. It's a good thing to be conscientious and responsible. You have to ask anyone you meet in the future." After Cheng Zongyang reassured them, he said, "Three eight twenty-four."

"Thank you, sir!" The three of them all bowed in gratitude in response.

Cheng Zongyang continued to walk in.

This password was his request, and the multiplication formula password should be changed every hour.

First, it doesn’t need to be too complicated and you don’t have to rack your brains to think of the password.

Secondly, it can improve these people’s mathematical calculation skills.

If someone doesn't match up, they will be arrested first. At the same time, if someone breaks in, one of the three can send a signal to warn at any time.

As long as the wild rice has not been harvested, he has to be on guard against people from the six families causing trouble.

Although this password is easy to be asked by an intruder under threat, it is still a good one. At least it is updated frequently, which means high vigilance.

Along the way, I will say this to any patrol team I encounter face to face. This is a must, no matter who comes.

He entered a place where the family warriors were held in solitary confinement, took one out and left Tianduan Village.

If a person wants to disappear, he has to leave the village.

Halfway through, the person who had fainted had his throat crushed by Cheng Zongyang and was taken into the wilderness.

Coming out of the market hut again, Luo Dingran was recording the completion status of the tasks on the blackboard at the door.

"grown ups."

Seeing Cheng Zongyang coming back so quickly, Luo Dingran was a little surprised and bowed quickly.

"Continue." Cheng Zongyang uttered two words.

After a moment, as Luo Dingran was ready to lie on the ground, under the watch of Zhang Jinquan and others, Cheng Zongyang placed the body next to Luo Dingran and placed the high-level soul crystal on his forehead.

"upgrade!"

Cheng Zongyang had an idea.

Suddenly, the high-level soul crystal that did not need to collect souls slowly flew up and then dissipated into a ball of red smoke.

The smoke was thick and red like blood, giving people a rather weird and terrifying feeling.

Slowly, the smoke covered Luo Dingran's body.

Then, in front of everyone's eyes, the smoke spread to the corpse nearby.

Suddenly, the man and the corpse were submerged in the red smoke. No one could see what was happening inside.

After about a cup of tea, the smoke gathered around Luo Dingran, and the corpse next to him disappeared.

Finally, the surging red smoke shrank and sank into Luo Dingran's body until it disappeared.

[Soul Slave upgraded successfully. 】

A prompt sound appeared in Cheng Zongyang's mind.

Luo Dingran hasn't woken up yet.

But Cheng Zongyang could already see his message.
